After you watch that video, what do you think about Hillarycare?
What happen if we the national debt goes from $8 trillions to $80 trillions? Do you think we will grow our way out of the national debt? Can we just file chapter 11?
Please show me the way!

I a selfish way, I don't care what happens tomorrow to this nation. Deep in my heart, I worry about this nation's slow death.

Politicians are more harmful cancer than growing fiscal deficit. They make promises and take decisions just to woo their vote bank and not thinking about the nation's interest. They spend taxpayer's money on wars, through which they make profits (we all know the examples), The war on Iraq is a whole different controversial topic. Business is going away from US because of it's high labor cost. If the government takes initiative, reduce income tax and not waste tax payers money in middle east, I would be happy earning the same salary. At least some jobs can be saved from going to china. But again politics is a cancer and every country in the world has it!

Don't believe the hype . Our current system costs us 50% more than anybody else, with worse results . Medicare & the VA work OK( when the drug & insurance company employees in Congress aren't trying to screw it up) , and are examples of what you are afraid of . ( Listening for the sound of the world coming to an end , but not hearing anything. ;D) Hillary's plan is Romney's MA plan with a few more choices . Last I heard Massachusetts is still there , and hasn't fallen off into the Atlantic (yet) . Relax . Besides if it ever got close , the HMO propaganda machine will crank up to stop it ;D.

The concept of universal healthcare is based on two totally flawed premises.
The first flawed premise is this: "Given enough money, a person could buy enough healthcare to live forever."
The second is that there's enough healthcare available to give everyone all they "need", it's a matter of distributing it "fairly".
Neither are true. Either one being false makes government interference in healthcare pointless, if not counter-productive.

Our national debt will not be because of Health care.. Bush's war has taken care of that.
Besides, I would rather the debt soared giving health care to those who need it than be used to kill our young people in a foreign country on the whim and lies of one man!

We have moral obligation to society that everyone deserves the right to life and benefits that allow them the treatment that can save their lives. People are not expendable for profits.

The debt would have been 12.5% lower if Bush hadn't invaded Iraq. So far, in absolute dollars, it is the costliest war in U.S. History, and it's costing us more.
